A Flea for Eeadiug Hatter in the Home. BY B£V. CB POTTS. In this paper I wish to give a few hints along the line of Intellectual progress and et joyment. Few parento but talk over and consult together about household expenses. Coal la laid in for the winter. Clothing is provided for the family, and. If means sSow It, without stint. General education and aooomplishmoitii] °°™°^" for the fair sex of the home are not forgot- ten, la a fair average home, what provision la made in the way of providing reading matter! Is It usual to have a family con- anltation as to the papers and magazines which shall be taken, and which are as needful for true family life as bread from the baker and meat from the buteher. This matter is worthy of serious, thoughtful action upon the part of parents and grown up sons and daughters. Let me suppose the family to be seated around the table at the pleasant evening meal. I will venture a few hinto to awaken attention to this highly important matter, and possibly guide to a wise conclusion. Am I met at the outeet by the remark, " This is a new way ot putting this subject " A thousand readers, if they were in the confessing mood, wonld say we never looked upon providing literature for our famillea as something tor which we were responsible in the same way that we felt respjEsible for housing, feeding and clothing our children. My object isto leiidaIl«uoh to genubie repentance, and to "bring forth fruits worthy of repentance." I think there should be at least three newspapers taken intn every home â€" pirsibly four. Oae should be poUtloiJ and general. Political leaning will determine the paper. Every citizen of this Damlnion should be interested in the government of the country. Citizenship is a sacred trust, and to fulfil It we need all pacslble bformatlon. It is not a mortal sin to read and ponder impar- tially, if that b 3 possible, the views of the paper representing tbe other side of pelitioa. It is not necessary for the people of this country to believe that the leading public men of the land are false and unprincipled. The prominent party papers have a good deal to anawer for In traducing public men who disagree with tkem in the affairs of the country. An independent paper is a osttEol go-between. Ttie second paper ahould be a good liter- ary paper, adapted socially and morally for healthy family reading. Such papers have not had the enoouragement in this country that they have deserved. They are far re- moved frooA the bittemeaa of political pwty, and fulfil a fine educational mission in the home-circle. A religieui journal ahoald be a weekly visitor and that, the paper pub- lished by the church to which the reader belongs. For many denominational reasons, you should support your own church organ; it gives must valuable information opon the educational, missionary and evangellstio movementa and progress of the ohurch. It Is alnost imposaible for you to have an In- telllguit sympathy with the general work of your section of the church, unless you read the paper it publishes.

Let me put a few qaeations to the faniily that I have had before my mind. How many books have yoa In yonr house 7 How many do 5 ou bay yearly for the Intel- lectual nouriahment of year minds T How often do you go into a look store, fer the avowed purpose of buying boeks, as part of the duty you owe yourselves, and the posl- tlcn yon occupy in society Yon should keep abreast of the age, and books are aa needful as railways, telegraphs and tele- phones. Indiscriminate buying of books is as sensible as Indiscriminate buying of dry goods or groceries. In tbe multitude of books, you need not only to exercise your beat judgment, but to secure the advice of competent friends in the various depart- ments, of literatare. A bad book ia only fit for kindling material. It may do harm be- fore it reaches the stove, therefore keep it out of your bonse, as you would a person of evil character. No need to have even Indiffer- ent books, when you may have choice books In every department of letters. I know it ia bewilderh^ to the mind, when you con- front the du^ of making choice of a limited As a rule, I am not prt^judiced in favour of subscription books, but I have been ex- amining one lately which agreeably disap- pointed me. The subject of history is so vast that many stand aghast at ite huge proportions, and despairingly say, " I muat not attempt the impossible." To such whose time for read- ing Is limited, I would reoonunend ** Rid- path's History of the World." It is in three volumes. The work, of course, is condensed, but comprehensive and clear. In the absence of being able to give the time needf al for the reading of general history, which may be had In volumes reaohing far into the hun- dreds, the three volumes referred to will be a good substitute. Let me Indulge the hope that my ideal family will act upon the mnte thrown out. The papers and magarinea are ordered, and the books are ooming gradually to enrich the library shelves. Now what use shall be nude of them There are odd minutes which may. be utilized by having a book selected and at hand. But I pkaa for far more than this. I ask that work be so ar- ranged that at least an hour daily be givtn to systematic reading. It is the very least that should be given to the improvement of both mind and heart. lauume that relig- ious reading shall have Ite proper place, and that therefore the heart aa well aa the in- tellect shall be ooltured. " Do I hear our readers laybg, *â-  Ibis whole subjeot ia looking more serious and important than it has ever appeared before!" Which Is the more excellent way The plan I have suggested, or the old bap-hazard style of baying now and again, and without thought. Looking at this question apart from the Intelleotnal pleasure that comes from the acqulaltion of knowledge, the people of thia country, who are going to win distinction in life and prosper la their business shall be the well read intelligent men and women of the Dominion. The citizens of Angnata 6a., are talking about resorting to force to drive the Chi- nese out of the town.
